    You get much over 18 you’re begging for problems and possibly major carnage

    The OM is definitely liking it at the moment.

    When we're out for weeks, we look forward to getting home. Especially if it's a tough period.

    Then we get home, have one good meal, watch storm chasers, and contemplate going back out.

    What does that make us?

    The other day I took a load of pipe and fittings out to the Borderlands with the new Ferd and the 40’ flat —didn’t scale it, but there was about 13k on the deck and that was all it wanted

    These Dodge's have 6 cylinder Cummins. I wouldn't get one without a Cummins.

    They're dually's as well.

    I’ve run them all and ran them hard and all I will say is Ferd did something right for a change and I’m thoroughly impressed — had about 1200 on it when I got it and just turned 6200

    I asked one guy what kind of mileage he got.

    "I've not figured that out yet."

    16 loaded and 19 empty what this thing does— and it’s been loaded a time or 3

    Big Daddy has a 1ton GMC Denali and can’t even keep up loaded— pisses him off to no end and of course I don’t say much about it
